LITA Forum 2016

This is how tweets on the #litaforum hashtag break down, and how they look when their words are mapped to the NRC Word-Emotion Association Lexicon. You can also download the raw data and mess around with it yourself.

Code is available on GitHub. Tweets have been gathered using Twitter’s streaming API and the streamR package for R. Data has been recorded at half-hour intervals whenever my laptop has been open since Thursday afternoon, so hopefully there won’t be too many gaps!
